scitex-compat 0.1.5

Backward compatibility shims and deprecation wrappers

scitex-compat

Backward compatibility shims and deprecation wrappers for the SciTeX ecosystem.

Problem and Solution

#	Problem	Solution
1	Renaming a public API silently breaks users -- there's no stdlib way to say "this still works but is deprecated"	@deprecated decorator -- emits DeprecationWarning with replacement hint, keeps the old name working one release
2	Migration legacy notify() calls -- old scripts reference functions whose home moved	Compat shims -- notify, notify_async still callable, forward to the new home, warn once

Installation

pip install scitex-compat

Usage

from scitex_compat import deprecated

@deprecated("new_function_name", removal_version="3.0")
def old_function():
    pass
